An Alabama legislator was arrested Tuesday on felony voter fraud charges accusing him of voting in a district where he did not live.

Republican Rep. David Cole of Huntsville was arrested on charges of voting in an unauthorized location, according to Madison County Jail records. The details of the charge were not immediately available in court records, but the arrest comes after accusations that Cole did not live in the district in which he was elected.

Cole, a doctor and Army veteran, was elected to the House of Representatives last year.

    Has there been a single credible allegation of a Democrat voting more than once?

    Every single case I’ve seen reported has been an R.

      I think there was some very niche case some time ago? I don’t remember the details and finding info about stuff like that, that isn’t conservative propaganda is impossible.
